Bring some festive winter cheer to your home with this easy and creative DIY project. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you create a reusable snowman window decoration using CommandTM Brand Outdoor Light Clips and dry-erase markers.
Materials Needed:
- CommandTM Brand Outdoor Light Clips
- Dry-erase markers
- Scissors (optional)
- Tape (optional)
- Clear plastic sheet or window film (optional)
Steps to Create the Snowman Decoration:
Drawing the Snowman on the Window:
- Clean the Window: Ensure the window is clean and dry before starting the project.
- Draw the Snowman: Use dry-erase markers to draw a snowman directly on the window. You can add details like a hat, scarf, and carrot nose.
- Add Additional Details: Use different colors to add eyes, a mouth, and other fun details to your snowman.
Adding Command Clips for Lights or Decorations:
- Prepare the Clips: Take the CommandTM Brand Outdoor Light Clips and attach them to the window frame. These will hold any additional decorations or lights you want to add.
- Add Decorations: Use the clips to hang small LED lights or other decorations around the snowman to enhance its appearance.
Using a Plastic Sheet for Durability (Optional):
- Cut the Plastic Sheet: If you want a more durable decoration, cut a clear plastic sheet slightly larger than your design area.
- Secure the Plastic Sheet: Use tape to secure the plastic sheet to the window frame or use the clips to hold it in place.
- Draw on the Plastic Sheet: Use dry-erase markers to draw the snowman on the plastic sheet instead of the window. This will make it easier to remove and reuse.
- Attach Decorations: Use the clips to attach lights or other decorations to the plastic sheet.
Advantages:
- Reusable: The dry-erase markers can be easily erased, making the decoration reusable.
- Easy to Remove: The Command clips can be easily removed without damaging the window.
- Versatile: You can change the design or add different decorations each year.
